Minions is a funny film which will be loved by the kids, with enough winks and nods for adults to be entertained during its very quick and breezy run time.July 12, 2015
Fittingly, because they're pill-shaped, the Minions work best in small doses.July 12, 2015
There's plenty of high-velocity comic inanity on display to keep kids happily diverted. But the movie's major flaw is an extension of its own premise: Search as they may, the minions never find a villain worthy of their subservience.July 16, 2015
I got tired of this joke before the movie ended, but I appreciate the gusto with which the filmmakers -- particularly Coffin, with his nimble vocalizations -- carried it out.July 10, 2015
It's not whether this prequel can mint money; that's a given. The questions is: Can the minions carry a movie all by their mischievous mini-selves? 'Fraid not.June 10, 2016
The only foreseeable problem with this movie is that parents are going to have to be dealing with wee ones mimicking minion-ese for as long as this franchise shall flourish.May 06, 2016
As a film, Minions may not be as clever or heartfelt as the Despicable Me films, but it's still plenty of fun.June 21, 2016
It's sometimes aimless, often hilarious and always silly, everything you would expect the minions to be.June 28, 2016
...the relatively short running time results in a general lack of lulls...April 15, 2016
When today's youth inevitably look back on their favorite tiny, yellow, goggled henchman, they won't be thinking of this movie.July 13, 2015
With its episodic stream of slapstick gags, Minions has moments of piquant absurdity, but mostly its shrill-but-cutesy anarchy works as a visual sugar rush for the preschool set.July 10, 2015
"Minions" is every bit as cute as it's supposed to be, a happily empty-headed animated frolic that rarely pauses to take a breath.
